The Arrowhead Center SBIR/STTR Accelerator (ACSA) program - tailored for the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) - is a 12-week cohort-based program that offers real-time support for small businesses preparing an SBIR/STTR proposal package. Drawing on the resources and expertise of NM FAST, ACSA will provide cohort participants a guided, structured track of support from registration to submission. During the course of the 12-week program, participants will receive guidance on areas such as aligning with USDA priorities, preparing an accurate budget, and creating a complete proposal package that adheres to all USDA requirements.
This iteration of the ACSA program will revolve around the USDA SBIR program. USDA funds high quality research related to important scientific problems and opportunities in agriculture that could lead to significant public benefits
